All my life I wanted to be a bank robber. Carry a gun and wear a mask. Now that it's happened I guess I'm just about the best bank robber they ever had. And I sure am happy.

What Happened

What happened
I am sick and
Not concerned about it.
I am pulling myself down
My tongue tied
Hostility is within me
All are against me
I am a guardian of stolen wealth
I am a protector of dacoits.
What happened What hapened? ?

Robber & The Roadie

When willie met ronnie he was runnin up a track
He was bent down, burned out, carryin a sack
Come on boy, you got to stop and help me some
And keep this money hidden when the police come
Ronnie was shiverin and makin funny sounds
He was lookin like a fox
That was runnin from the hounds
Sure little buddy, I can lighten up your load
You half it up, Ill hit it up, Ill take it down the road
Never had a better combination been planned
cos willie was a roadie with a rock n? roll band
They were heads back, celebratin, drinkin moonshine
Heads down, here we go across another state line
Tanked up and bullet proof
They couldnt give a monkeys
Damn if he didnt hide the money in a drum case
Pack em up, hit em up, do another show
The robber and the roadie got a long way to go
Willie and ronnie
Anytime they wanted they would pull another job

The Solitary 'Bureau Puller' in the City

The burglar kills two birds with one stone.
He lassos the cupboard and pulls alone.
Noise doesn't disturb those in sleep
and he loots the gold they keep.
The clean locker makes all not to moan.

A few hours the cops took for the robber to nab
as he was the only one of his tribe to grab
the cash and jewels only on a Thursday
without harming and making people bray.

Every time they put him into the jail,
‘No witness' easily takes him out in bail.
'The thieves making heists shouldn't be single.
Share your expertise with the new ones to mingle'.
